Start Your Real Estate Journey with Vincent, Ferrara
Growing up on South Hill just past Ithaca College, Vinny went through Ithaca City Schools, graduating Ithaca High School in 2014. After graduating high school, Vinny attended SUNY Delhi, graduating Cum Laude with a Bachelors in Technology.
Moving back to Ithaca in 2018, Vinny realized that Real Estate was a mixture of everything he loved! Architectural design, specifically single-family homes, and having the flexibility to meet new people and be “active” in the community every day. Fully licensed and ready to go in June 2019, Vinny was the newest (and youngest at the time) agent with Howard Hanna Ithaca.
Vinny has quickly closed over $20M in sales over four short years, representing buyers, sellers and renters! Representing buyers in this ever-changing and intense market is where Vinny has truly shined. First-time-homebuyers have raved that Vinny makes the process easy, approachable, and smooth. In the first three years, Vinny was apart of the very first formed real estate team in Ithaca, gaining experience and knowledge that only seasoned agents can pass on. Soaking it all in, Vinny is now an independent agent with Howard Hanna, and is ecstatic to continue building a custom brand in real estate.
Moving forward, Vinny is excited to continue growing in his career, and helping buyers sellers and renters find their dream home. Grounded in the Ithaca Hancock St office with Howard Hanna, Vinny is ready to assist in Tompkins County, as well as the entire Finger Lakes region. He looks forward to being apart of your real estate journey, and helping you find and define your luxury.

Client Testimonials
Vinny was with us through the purchase and sale of our first home. He showed
us house after house, and was honest, patient, and encouraging with each one. He walked us through all of the steps of both the buying and selling processes. Vinny was quick to get our home listed and sold for us when we moved out of state (with only two months notice before our leave date). Working with him was nothing short of amazing both times, and the processes could not have gone smoother. We were extremely pleased with Vinny!
Vinny is incredible. We searched for a house at the worst possible time. Interest rate was skyrocketing. The pandemic was still ongoing. We were out of town. All of these made finding a suitable home difficult, not to mention finding a perfect house. The possible options that Vinny sent us were all good. During the virtual visit in which Vinny videotaped the house and commented on the features of the house according to our preference, it is very clear and helpful. Videos tell us a lot, but not everything. Vinny would tell us whether the floor feels uneven, whether there is a smell that we may find uncomfortable, etc. In the entire process, Vinny’s guidance eased our anxiety of purchasing a house for the first time. There were lots and lots of things that Vinny reminded us of and did for us that make the long and strenuous closing process eventually a pleasant experience. Vinny is professional, responsive, and easy to work with. He should be your go-to guy!
There are simply no words to describe what an asset Vinny is to our community. In so very many ways. As our realtor, his knowledge and building background was just an amazing plus to the entire experience! He would find things, thankfully to our advantage, we would never have known otherwise. He was extremely professional , kind with the patience of a Saint. Constantly going above and beyond for us. He made himself available for even the littlest things at all hours! THIS is the type of person you want in your corner!!! I trust him implicitly and will never ever consider anyone else. He is devoted, incredibly honest well informed and frankly one of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet. There are just not any words that can truly express how grateful we are to have had the absolute pleasure of working with Vinny. We found a beautiful home all because of his consistent tenacity to make his clients happy. Your happiness is clearly shown above his, with everything he does. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts and can’t wait to have dinners and gatherings around the fire pit on our beautiful new property. You are simply THE BEST!!!! ♥
We could not have been more pleased working with Vinny. He was always so kind, thoughtful, and just all around so easy to work with. He was always so accessible via text and email–he made the process as easy as it could have been. We had to deal with so much, having the market so volatile at the time of purchase, he helped us navigate all of the tricky in and outs and I would recommend him to any and everyone looking.
We had an absolutely wonderful experience working with Vinny! He is among the most thorough, thoughtful, and knowledgeable professionals we have worked with. He made the entire experience of buying a home both smooth and fun, especially in a market that was quite volatile. He went the distance to understand what we wanted, to show us detailed remote viewings, and be with us through every minute of the process. Our journey with Vinny started with a tour of Ithaca since we were buying from out of town. Vinny patiently took us through different neighborhoods, and talked about various considerations but made sure not to overwhelm us with information. In the next phase, Vinny sent us potential listings online, and very quickly winnowed them down to our individual preferences and tastes. Once we were ready to make offers, Vinny did an amazing job of organizing remote viewings. He recorded a personalized walk-through video, pointed out details in the house, and made us feel we were right there with him.
Having Vinny’s commentary on the video was super helpful, as we could keep consulting it. Once the bidding process started, Vinny guided us through every step of the way in what turned out to be a very challenging bidding season. We appreciated his attention to detail, his knowledge of real estate and Ithaca, and his fundamental understanding of what kind of houses we wanted. Even after we closed the house, Vinny has continued guiding us through the new home-owning process, anticipating our noob mistakes and always having an answer to everything. Our experience of buying a home was a stark contrast to many of our other friends, and we have Vinny to thank for it! He has our highest recommendations.
